Answer:
x=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
3(x + -2) = 5x + 8
Reorder the terms:
3(-2 + x) = 5x + 8
(-2 * 3 + x * 3) = 5x + 8
(-6 + 3x) = 5x + 8
Reorder the terms:
-6 + 3x = 8 + 5x
Solving
-6 + 3x = 8 + 5x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-5x' to each side of the equation.
-6 + 3x + -5x = 8 + 5x + -5x
Combine like terms: 3x + -5x = -2x
-6 + -2x = 8 + 5x + -5x
Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0
-6 + -2x = 8 + 0
-6 + -2x = 8
Add '6' to each side of the equation.
-6 + 6 + -2x = 8 + 6
Combine like terms: -6 + 6 = 0
0 + -2x = 8 + 6
-2x = 8 + 6
Combine like terms: 8 + 6 = 14
-2x = 14
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = -7
Simplifying
x = -7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5 ^ 3 = 5 * 5 *5 = 125
i⁹ = i⁴ * i⁴ * i = 1 * 1 * i = i
5 ^ 3 * i ^ 9 = 125 * i = 125i
5 ^ 3 * i ^ 9
I say 9 students will attend the play because some of the students that said they were going to may not show up.
**also, since this is a prediction there’s really no right or wrong answer.
Answer:
x = 7 x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
3|x − 3| + 2 = 14
Subtract 2 from each side
3|x − 3| + 2 -2= 14-2
3|x − 3| = 12
Divide by 3
3|x − 3| /3 = 12/3
|x − 3| = 4
Now the absolute value has a positive and negative solution.
x-3 = 4 x-3 = -4
Add 3 to each side
x-3+3 = 4+3 x-3+3 = -4+3
x = 7 x = -1
